    This is my 3DOF project with Arduino and using Monster Motor Shield with wiper motor. First it will be 2DOF, but then it will be 3DOF with a 360 degree axis. The project is based on the RacingMat https://www.xsimulator.net/community/threads/2dof-arduino-simulator-with-rear-wipers.4896/

    Very Important!!!!

    Do not switch on the wiper motor without changing the internal circuit as it may burn your Monster Motor Shield.

    Open wiper motor and disconnect the wires:

    It is always a sense of relief and joy when you fire up a sim for the first time :thumbs

    I am looking forward to seeing the seat mounted and your rig in action.

    As I understand, was the ground connect on the hull?
    Very useful. Thanks for the advice, I wouldn't know about it cause the number of channels out of motor doesn't

    In my case yes, the ground was connected in the hull.
    If you need help, I'll be happy to help.
